At Monnow Eyecare, we take time to understand your eyes fully before recommending scleral lenses, ensuring each pair is carefully fitted and adjusted for your exact needs.
Scleral lenses are large, rigid gas-permeable lenses designed to vault over the entire surface of the cornea, resting gently on the white of the eye (the sclera). This creates a smooth, protective
surface and a tear-filled chamber between the lens and the eye, helping to correct vision and provide lasting comfrt even in challenging conditions.
They are often recommended for patients who:
- Have keratoconus or other irregular corneal shapes
- Experience severe dry eye syndrome
- Have had previous corneal surgery or trauma
- Struggle with comfort or vision using regular soft or gas permeable lenses
Fitting scleral lenses takes time and care. At Monnow Eyecare,we offer a calm, unhurried experience with full guidance at every stage.
Your appointment will include:
- A thorough examination and topography using our Myah scanner.
- An in-depth conversation about your vision, comfort and lifestyle
- Personalised lens fitting, with time for questions and trial wear
- Follow-up appointments to fine tune the fit and ensure long-term success
